The Unnatural Death of a Jacobite by Douglas Watt
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In 1689 a body is discovered in the Craigleith Quarry, near Edinburgh. It is determined to be the body of a lawyer. Is his death connected to his work or the uprising occurring in the Highlands. Ex-advocate John MacKenzie with his assistant Davie Scougall are asked to investigate.
This is the first of the series that I have read, it can easily be read as a standalone story. I enjoyed this interesting well-written mystery with its likeable characters.
